The next general meeting of the League of Women Voters of Hawaii County, or LWVHC, will be held in person and via Zoom at 10 a.m. Friday, Nov. 5, at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Puna.
Hawaii has one of the most modern elections system: early voting, automatic and online voter registration, election day voter registration, ballot tracking, and voting by mail and in-person.
Yet, not unlike on the mainland, there is voter mistrust, election challenges, threats being made against election officials, and calls to undo Hawaii’s election progress and return to one-day voting on paper ballots.
What has been the impact on our elections by the transition to mail-in voting? How can citizens and LWVHC members support the Hawaii County election officials or help to secure our elections? Join us for a talk by Jon Henricks, Hawaii County clerk, about “Voting in the New Era of Elections by Mail.”
